DAVE Modelshift analysis of L 98-59 c. The upper two rows represent the phase-folded light curve with the best-fit transit model (first row), and the phase-folded light curve convolved with the best-fit transit model (second row). The six panels in the lower two rows show all transits (label “Primary”), all odd transits (“Odd”), all even transits (“Even”), and the most significant secondary (“Secondary”), tertiary (“Tertiary”), and (“Positive”) features in the light curve. The table above the figure lists the significance of each feature (see text for details). There are no significant odd–even differences, secondary eclipses, or photocenter shifts, indicating that the transit events are consistent with genuine planet candidates.
